In line with the findings of the Electrolux Asia Pacific Food Waste at Home Survey, which indicates that 77% of Malaysians waste food at home, the company will launch “MY Happy Plate” campaign on social media to encourage Malaysians to be more food waste aware. For every three pledges to stop the wastage, Electrolux Malaysia will donate a “MY Happy Plate” food bundle to a family in need.

“One” is not the loneliest number when it comes to one-ingredient meals that go a very long way towards reducing the 788,600 tonnes of food waste generated each year in Singapore – daily, that translates to the weight of 108 fully loaded double decker buses.

According to the latest Electrolux survey into food waste habits, the majority of respondents (41%) only think about food waste occasionally despite households contributing to the 788,600 tonnes* of food waste generated in Singapore each year.

Since 2003, Electrolux has tasked design students around the world: can you dream up a concept that’s relevant right now, yet paves the way for enhancing life in the future? The champion wins €10,000 and a six-month paid internship at an Electrolux global design centre; several past finalists currently work at these centres.
